New Evolution

Shimmering light danced
on the water all year
dawn of the crumbling sky
the blue slurred so softly by suddenly a breath of wind
caught a golden carpet of crystal
i saw a buttery sun
and i watched as it melted away
in this new evolution
new evolution…
gripping white fingers
of the warriors came crashing
down around them
they would stream into spirals
from their vaulting paths
and the children of the earth
were never heard from again
in this new evolution…
sky met land again
on the crafty water
as some went frolicking
trotting down to the shoreline
the cold would settle in their bones
and gritted against their palms
and the children of the earth
were never heard from again
in this new evolution
new evolution…
